| joan | 10/13/04 | Great looking shirt and looks like you have the sizing down well. I remember the first time I used this pattern a couple of years ago, the placket opening ended up about 2" inches to the left of center, and DH said "thats alright, you have started a new style", but I wouldn't let him wear it (too embarrassed), but you followed the instructions well. |

| Diana M | 10/14/04 | Great job with the colors, and looks like you've got the fitting process in hand. Gasp -- you CUT a S&S pattern master!!! Courageous move, that! |

| Karen Bowers | 10/14/04 | you got great results! it's a very nice shirt. to offer unsolicited advice, i think if you graded up the pocket just a little it would look more proportional. i think you did a great job on adapting the pattern to fit your husband very well. |

| suncentaur | 10/14/04 | looks like you got a good fit. I still haven't tried a stretch and sew pattern. I like the contrasting collar. I hope you enjoy your serger. Someday, I keep saying I will get one. |

| Mini | 10/14/04 | Good job upsizing this pattern. Stretch and Sew mens' patterns are excellent. Too bad there aren't more of them, because the instructions are wonderful. |

| Stefanie | 10/14/04 | It's really helpful to see your grading up methods. I might try that idea with some Burda WOF patterns that are about 2 sizes too small for my DH. Congrats on the new serger! |
